Build

$ docker build --build-arg VERSION=$RCLONE_VERSION -t rclone .

Usage

Rclone is defined generically through the container environment. To find the name of the environment variable, first, take the long option name, strip the leading --, change - to _ make upper case and prepend RCLONE_. All available endpoints are described in the official rclone documentation of each command.

Run rclone (default entrypoint)

$ docker run --rm -it travelping/rclone:latest --help

Run rclone (sftp)

This configuration provides a simple functionality test by enhancing the default entrypoint (usr/bin/rclone). Running a touch command on the remote path of a sftp server can be done entirely through environment.

docker run --rm -it -e RCLONE_CONFIG_SFTP_TYPE=sftp \
-e RCLONE_CONFIG_SFTP_HOST=host.com \
-e RCLONE_CONFIG_SFTP_USER=name \
-e RCLONE_CONFIG_SFTP_PORT=23 \
-e RCLONE_CONFIG_SFTP_PASS=password travelping/rclone:latest touch sftp:path

Run rclone (s3)

This configuration provides a simple functionality test by enhancing the default entrypoint (usr/bin/rclone). Running a touch command on the remote path of a s3 bucket can be done entirely through environment.

docker run --rm -it -e RCLONE_CONFIG_S3_TYPE: "s3" \
-e RCLONE_CONFIG_S3_ENV_AUTH: "false" \
-e RCLONE_CONFIG_S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID: "<sensitive>" \
-e RCLONE_CONFIG_S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY: "<sensitive>" \
-e RCLONE_CONFIG_S3_REGION: "s3-<region>" \
-e RCLONE_CONFIG_S3_ACL: "private" \
    RCLONE_CONFIG_S3_FORCE_PATH_STYLE: "false" travelping/rclone:latest touch sftp:path

Run shell

$ docker run --rm -it --entrypoint=/bin/sh travelping/rclone:latest

Inotify

Besides rclone this container also features inotify. Watchpatterns can be used to make sure only finished files are being transfered. This is important so no garbage-data is moved (e.g. traces still beeing captured). All inotify-events for a directory /data/ can be neatly logged using this command:

inotifywait -mr --timefmt '%H:%M' --format '%T %w %e %f' /data/

Inotify-Script

Wating for the close_write event, this command only pushes "finished" data to the destination.

watchnames=''
[ -d /data/ ] && watchnames="$watchnames /data/"
inotifywait --monitor -e close_write --format %w%f $watchnames | while read FILE
do
  echo "$FILE is finished. Moving to data/finished/"
  mv $FILE/ data/finished/
  rclone move /data/finished/ $RCLONE_REMOTE_NAME:RCLONE_REMOTE_PATH/
done

Inotify-Script with lz4 compression

Like the Inotify example, but compress data with lz4 before pushing to destination.

watchnames=''
[ -d /data/ ] && watchnames="$watchnames /data/"
inotifywait --monitor -e close_write --format %w%f $watchnames | while read FILE
do
  echo "$FILE is finished. Moving to data/finished/"
  lz4 --rm -c9 $FILE > data/finished/$FILE.lz4
  rclone move /data/finished/ $RCLONE_REMOTE_NAME:RCLONE_REMOTE_PATH/
done

Inotify-Script with zstd compression

Like the Inotify example, but compress data with zstd before pushing to destination. It compresses better than .lz4 but needs more CPU cycles. So, pick your poison.

watchnames=''
[ -d /data/ ] && watchnames="$watchnames /data/"
inotifywait --monitor -e close_write --format %w%f $watchnames | while read FILE
do
  echo "$FILE is finished. Moving to data/finished/"
  zsdt --rm -19 $FILE -o data/finished/$FILE.zstd
  rclone move /data/finished/ $RCLONE_REMOTE_NAME:RCLONE_REMOTE_PATH/
done
